Growing Cannabis indoors in the UK
Growing weed indoors is tricky enough, but growing it in the UK makes everything that little bit harder. Not only is it illegal to cultivate cannabis in the UK, but we also lack access to lot of things other growers may take for granted, such as wide varieties of Cannabis nutrients,and the correct equipment.
We make do though, and that says something for the spirit of the stoner within us all, allowing us to get even the hardest, and trickiest, jobs done, though really, that may be down to the Sativa…
Growing indoors allows you many opportunities not available to outdoor growers however, such as the ability to fully control your environment.
This includes not only temperature and RH, but bugs, disease, and other problems.
When looking to grow Cannabis indoors, the work involved for preparation is minor, in fact, its limited to a grow space, such as a tent or spare room, some fans for circulation, and of course… a light!
The light you choose for your Cannabis plant will have a massive effect on the yields you get from her, so its important not to try and save too much at this point. I found an amazing article on this subject the other day, which had tested the strengths and weaknesses of 3 budget Cannabis lights, to see which held up the best. Surprisingly, all 3 were pretty incredible, and definitely worth investing in, especially for your first light.
Another point you need to factor into your growing is the legality, obviously , in the UK it is illegal to germinate Cannabis seeds, so if you really did push ahead with your plans you will need to be very stealthy. This means, don’t tell anyone, don’t sell any weed, and keep your activities to a minimum.
Growing Cannabis indoors is an art, but its highly achievable for every grower out there, with just a small amount of help! The issues you face when growing indoors can be simplified to a small area, and so it usually makes sense for beginner growers to start their journey indoors.
Wherever you choose to grow your Cannabis this year, whether inside or out, the methods and techniques that you pick up along the way can be applied to either. You may find that some work better when applied inside, and likewise for outdoor cultivation.
Similarly you may find that some strains work better outdoors, whereas some fail to produce enough buds.
